There’s something so special about being part of a moment that people will remember for the rest of their lives 🤍

Not just the big things…but the quiet smiles, the deep breaths before “I do,” and the love that fills the room without needing to say a word. 💍

Moments like these remind me why I do what I do. ❤️

Love is a beautiful thing to witness… and an even greater thing to celebrate. 🥰

Four years. ❤️🎉

Four years of standing with couples in their most sacred moments.
Four years of witnessing tears, laughter, promises, and new beginnings.
Four years of saying “yes” to love over and over again.🥰

It’s Valentine’s Day and Married by Poko turns 4 today! 🎉💍

What started as a simple request has grown into a beautiful journey filled with unforgettable ceremonies, heartfelt vows, and families trusting me with their once-in-a-lifetime moments. I don’t take that lightly.

This isn’t just a business anniversary. It’s four years of purpose.
Four years of celebrating love in all its forms.
Four years of being invited into spaces that matter deeply. 🙏

To my couples thank you for allowing me to tell your stories.
To my husband, family and friends thank you for believing in me and uplifting with encouragement and love.
To everyone who has supported Married by Poko thank you for helping us grow. ❤️

Here’s to many more chapters of love, legacy, and beautiful beginnings. 😍

Happy Valentine’s Day!❤️🥰
And happy 4th birthday to Married by Poko 🥳🤩🍰

✨ More Than “I Do’s” ✨

Sometimes I’m called to officiate marriages and sometimes I’m called for different moments just as meaningful.

Recently, I had the honour of blessing a ring and a 21st key both meaningful gifts, symbolising love in different ways and for different moments. 🔑💍
These moments carry deep meaning, prayer, and intention.
Being a celebrant isn’t only about weddings. I enjoy honouring and celebrating life’s special moments, both big and small.

Every chapter matters and every precious moment is worth honouring. 🥰

Thank you Julia Pihigia for inviting me and choosing me to bless these beautiful gifts that represent love and the beginning of a new chapter. ❤️ We hope you enjoyed your celebrations and Happy belated birthday to you and Elijah 🎉

✨ Terry & Lisa’s Picnic Wedding @
Cornwall Park, Auckland, Saturday 22nd November 2025 ✨

On Saturday the 22nd of November I had the honour of officiating the intimate and faith filled wedding of Terry and Lisa. A ceremony that reminded me that the most beautiful moments in life are often the simplest ones.

No decorations.
No grand setup.
Just love, family, worship… and the unmistakable presence of God resting over us all.

Under the peaceful shade of Cornwall Parks natural green beauty, surrounded by those dearest to their hearts, Terry and Lisa chose a picnic style wedding that reflected exactly who they are humble, grounded, joyful, and deeply anchored in Christ.

Every part of their ceremony from the worship that opened the day, the vows spoken with such sincerity, to the covering prayer shared by their church family, carried a quiet strength and a sweetness that only God can author.

Their love story stood on its own without needing anything extra, because His grace was the true decoration. 🤍

What a privilege it was to witness two hearts becoming one...
Not for show, but for covenant.
Not for the setting, but for the purity of what their hearts were choosing.
Not for aesthetics, but for purpose.
Not for tradition, but for God’s design.

Ecclesiastes 4:12 that one person may be overcome, two can stand together, but a cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

A marriage built on two hearts can be shaken…but a marriage built with God cannot be overcome. For a cord of three strands is not quickly broken and when God is the third strand, it is not just strong…
It is enduring.
It is lasting.
It is unbreakable.

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Taia 👩‍❤️‍👨💍

Thank you for trusting me with such a sacred moment. Your union was a reminder that love doesn’t need to be loud to be powerful it just needs to be rooted in God.
